As the result of the recent de-accreditation of registrar Maxim Internet, Inc., ICANN is seeking expressions of interest from ICANN-accredited registrars that might wish to assume sponsorship of the gTLD names that were previously managed by Maxim Internet. This request for expressions of interest is made pursuant to the De-Accredited Registrar Transition Procedure posted at http://www.icann.org/processes/registrars/de-accredited-registrar-transition-procedure-01oct08.pdf.
The de-accredited registrar managed approximately 5,219 valid registrations. ICANN has secured registration data for these registrations, but some issues exist with regard to the consistency and form of the data. (A description of the available data and an additional opportunity to submit questions will be provided to responding registrars after this request for expressions of interest closes. Submission of an expression of interest at this time would not obligate a registrar to receive the bulk transfer.)
ICANN-accredited registrars who wish to be considered as potential recipients of the bulk transfer should be in good standing with regard to all ICANN-obligations and submit a statement of interest, using the form available at http://www.icann.org/en/processes/registrars/eoi-bulk-transfer-maxim-15jun09-en.doc [DOC, 37K], by no later than 23:00 UTC on Friday, 19 June 2009. In light of the unique circumstances of this case, in the selection process, an advantage or preference may be given to registrars with prior experience in integrating acquisitions, resellers, or large portfolio accounts, or receiving bulk transfers with incomplete or problematic data.
ICANN reserves the right to entertain any or none of the statements of interest submitted in response to this request and to select or approve a bulk-transfer recipient outside this process. To the extent confidential treatment of trade secrets or financial information in the submission is required, such information should be designated accordingly.
Questions and submissions should be submitted by email to mike.zupke@icann.org.
